Chapter 388: Poisons and Accusations
The qi resisted as it was forced down into liquid form and Omilaena imagined spiritual screams. It wanted to be an ephemeral energy flowing through all life, not something as tangible as chakra, but she forced it into a concrete state. Qi was intrinsically linked to pills, medicinal and otherwise, so she was confident that it could take a different sort of physical form.
At last she held up a syringe filled with blue liquid, the work of over a day of pseudo-cultivation. It throbbed with power in her fingers, familiar and yet alien at once.
This was the culmination of all her training in the Pureflower sect, even though she couldn't use it. She hadn't yet decided on a name: she considered calling it "liquid ice," which amused her because that should just be water. This, however, was pure ice qi that happened to take liquid form, and in theory could be her next step forward.
If she injected it now, her body would surge with temporary power, but that would be all. She could already create reasonably strong injections, so that would be a waste of resources. All her work in the sect had only earned her a few ice pills of this quality, after all, so she needed to find a permanent method of application.
Omilaena sighed and placed the syringe safely in her spatial satchel, then examined her soul for inspiration.
